Klick auf USA (Englisch) führt zu Lycos.Inc (USA) mit Sitz in Waltham, Massachusetts
Lycos (Frankreich und Spanien) sind nicht mit Lycos Inc. verlinkt. Dagegen aber z.B. Schweden und England. Bei Lycos Schweden und England wird noch unterschieden in
USA (English) und USA (Spanish). Die „Spanische“ bringt aber auch keinen spanischen
Text mehr; sie ist identisch mit der englischen Seite. Im Umbruch???

Former Bertelsmann Executive Alfred Tolle Leads 10-Year-Old Lycos In New Direction - 08.22.05July 2005 …
Alfred Tolle recently joined Lycos as its chief executive officer, …
Mr. Tolle currently sits on the Board of Directors of Daum Communications Corporation, one of the leading Internet, media and e-commerce destinations in Korea, with a growing presence throughout the Asian markets, and the parent company of Lycos, Inc. …….
Anmerkung:
Eigner von Lycos Inc. ist zu diesem Zeitpunkt bereits Daum Communications und Tolle
bereits im Board of Directors von Daum.
In der Überschrift wird der Aufhänger aber auf den Konkurrenten Bertelsmann gerichtet?
Freud’scher Fehler?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In den Lebensläufen von Brian, Kevin und Dan heißt es u.a. „rejoined Lycos in May, June 2005“. Sie wurden also von Tolle zurückgeholt. Die übrigen als bisherige Mitarbeiter in das
Management berufen. Das Management macht einen sehr professionellen Eindruck.
Daum Communications wird m.E. gleichrangig zu Bertelsmann rangieren. Lycos Inc. gleichberechtigter Partner in dem neuen Verbund! Es kann aber nur einen CEO geben.
Das wird interessant. Vielleicht macht CM nach 4 Jahren den Anfangssprung zu Bertels-
mann (Mit dem Segen der mächtigen Chefin; wie mächtig, haben wir ja gerade gesehen!).
Dann übernimmt Tolle ganz; zuvor die außereuropäischen Aktivitäten!
“Alfred joined Lycos as the Chief Executive Officer in 2005”
Also laufen die Überlegungen, wie man Terra ausbootet, schon sehr lange. Dies hat Tradern und Shorts sehr in die Hände gespielt, um es mal so auszudrücken.
Anmerkung:
Der Kurs wurde Anfang 2005 bis etwa Mitte 2005 von 0,6x auf die EINS hochgezogen und bewegt sich seitdem in der Range um die EINS. Man kann wohl auch sagen: „Wird in dieser
Range gehalten.“ Mit oder trotz aller Balken und Deckel oder so oder umgekehrt.
Der Link auf der Home-Page unserer (deutschen) Lycos zeigt aber, die Sache ist gegessen. Aktienrechtlich müsste da wohl langsam eine Adhoc her. Allerdings zunächst von Telefonica.
Dazu passt dann auch gut das Rückkaufprogramm.
Insgesamt muss dann auch ein neuer CFO, eine neue CFO her. Mit genügend Background für die neuen Aufgaben. Die Pacific-Boys sollten mal anständig recherchieren!
Und last not least:
CM hat wiederholt, auch per Adhoc, deutlich den Breakeven für 2006 angekündigt. Er ist dabei geblieben.
Terra soll ausgebootet werden. Da man die AA-Shares von Terra nicht über die Börse aufkaufen kann, ......ist das schon etwas schwieriger.
Nachrangige B-Aktien aufzukaufen, um B-Aktionäre herauszudrücken macht keinen Sinn.
Terra behielte immer seine Sperrminorität.
Das dürften interessante Tage werden!
